Singapore GP: Introductory training for Mercedes and Hamilton

The first training session in Singapore started at a fairly restrained pace, as the racers drove somewhere around 20 laps. The fastest in this was Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton, who finished training ahead of Webber and Vettl. Third place went to Hamilton teammate Nico Rosberg. Raikkonen and Grosjean followed in fifth and sixth place, and only seventh place was taken by Ferrari hero Fernando Alonso.
